Your excellent care is evident just by her age and recent activities. Keep her loved and warm and cuddled. It might be less stress to her to be caged in a smaller, more intimate setting. My heart goes out to you, I know you're doing everything you can.Big hugs,kay

Oops, I hit send too fast. My phone just ran for a caught caught baby. You're on track by feeding LESS, More often. Their little systems are delicate. The tenting of the skin means dehydration, but that's not as serious as the bloat. I'd give half strength formula for no more than 24 hours, then go ...

You can try Baby Gas Drops - with simethicone. They are for bloating. Just dip the end of a toothpick in the drops and touch to the baby's tongue. Once they start bloating, it might be too late. Also, you can make the Esbilac half strength with Pedialyte.k

I have three new Hanna babies. When I got the call for the first baby, I told the man to go out and look for more. He found two more babies. They are 22 grams -- a good size and are eyes open. Jiminy, Cricket and Lady Bug. Maybe I'll have time to get pics tomorrow. I also got three new grays today,...

Frosty has Puffs, finally!! :multi: He's been the object of ridicule and razzing by the manly endowed, but the family gems have finally descended. Some went so far as to think his mama had a girl. :roll: He'll be four this winter and I see him every day ,many times a day, hanging on the side of his ...

I break off privet bushes and crape myrtle on my way in the house, also dandelions, and most things in my yard. I am careful about them being clean, so I don't bring in bugs, but a quick rinse in the sink also gives them some moisture to lick on.k

Yes, a lot of people have said that their babies bond to the other sqrl rather than their mommies. That is why I don't have another one. However, if you are looking for space for two cages, you don't have to put them together. I took in a rescue and gave them separate play time because she bullied ...

You bring up a lot of really good questions -- all things you need to know, but might not before you take on your new one. You say you can't say "no," so it sounds like a done deal. My son and family took on an unfriendly flyer and they are so happy with Junebug. She just needed flyer peop...

Look for rehab centers or groups in your area. They usually need volunteers and will train you. You can look at http://www.tc.umn.edu/~devo0028/contactA.htm to find a rehabber in your area. Ask a lot of questions and find someone you click with. A long-time rehabber I know in the Tampa area just got...

I really think that 12 inches includes the tail. The Wikipedia says 33 cm including tail. I think they're smaller than our grays, but I was a kid when I lived in WA. They are a lot more hyper than grays or foxers and flyers and some rehabbers call them c"ockroaches with teeth." Of course, ...

Your idea sounds great. Remember that there is probably nothing to be done for the baby's foot except see that it doesn't worsen. It will probably heal well with mom's support and licking. The only intervention would be if it spreads or gets more swollen and needs and antibiotic. Mom might hae acci...

Write down what he does each time, write what food he's just eaten and the length of time he splats. It could be his way to settle down after playing or it could be a quiet seizure. Just in case you take him to a vet, he'll need to know all the details. It sounds like a rest after exercise and bein...
